David was very customer focused and on point with suggestions to help us get the most out of our celebration. I appreciate his attention to detail in walking through the set-up with us the day prior to the event. The food was tasty, well-prepared, and accommodated some dietary requests. Maria came to set up (nice presentation!) and help everyone fill their plates. She was friendly, professional and very efficient. Cleaning up was accomplished in a blink of an eye. We highly recommend Simply Elegant and look forward to having them cater many future events for us.

He checked out the venue for me, he helped me plan a vegetarian/vegan menu. He helped with all kinds of details. All the guests RAVED about the food. He made my party a success and I am so grateful. His assistant for the day was Ashley and she was phenomenal. Friendly, helpful, professional! I was so impressed. Just hire them.

They took care of renting the tables and chairs and setting them up in a way that realized this vision. They seemed to share in our excitement and to be genuinely looking forward to executing it as much as we were! The food itself was outstanding. They offered an innovative menu but also responded to our special requests with no problem. As others have pointed out, the service was attentive without being intrusive, and the clean up job was amazing - just like they had never been there. We had great feedback from our guests and overall were very happy. We had never had a catered event before, but now I am wondering what the next one will be. :)

I know this review is a little dated, but Eron's Epicure wasn't on Yelp at the time (i don't think…read moreYelp existed at the time). Eron worked very closely with me to develop just the right menu for my Bar Mitzvah. Even though it's been over 10 years I still have vivid memories of the egg rolls, asian noodles, and other delicious treats he created for me that day. If you are looking for a chef who is passionate about his work and loves providing unforgettable food experiences I would recommend "Eron's Epicure".

Upon finding Foodie Delights, I took a chance and it worked! The chef offered a beautiful menu to prepare and guaranteed quality service and food. When they arrived, the main dishes, baked chicken and roasted potatoes were piping hot, the rustic salad was fresh, (the green tomatoes were fresh from the garden), and the homemade balsamic dressing was a hit with the guests. There was more than enough food. The appetizer tray displayed an assortment of cheese and fruit, and garnished with bread to dip with the homemade balsamic dressing. I'll definitely use this business again when I'm in the DC area.

Most recently we hosted an educational event for Montana Sapphires, Allison did serious research when developing the menu for this event to ensure that everything was inspired by sapphires and gems, and just look at the pics!

I always look forward to my next call to Occasions!

I worked with Molly. She was extremely helpful & catered my event to match my needs and budget. On the day of the event, I was very pleased with the food presentation. Variety was great & everything was delicious! No complaints from my event guests. Most of all, the on-site catering attendants handled everything exceptionally well! Eudy, Mohamed, and Gianella were phenomenal!! They went above and beyond. I had a few last-minute needs & they stepped up (helping with my swag/sign-in table set-up, providing an extra linen, & working around our onsite craft-making exhibit). They continuously checked on me throughout the evening and were such a positive presence! So thankful for such an excellent experience!

Strathmore Live from the Lawn Review:…read more I wanted to send a yelpsphere shout out to the Ridgewell's staff that was present on Wednesday, 8th during Erin & the Wildfire performance. Regardless of the drizzle of rain, the heat & those pesky mosquitoes, the employees were Rockstars. Two of three that were on the grill along with the Manger on duty had not issue checking to see if their Veggie Burger was Vegan friendly, it was not. However & in the interim of checking the ingredients, one of the Griller's offered to cook the Veggie Burger on aluminum foil & away from the meat products...that did me righteous. Other employees taking orders were just as friendly in trying to accommodate customers & their children selections. As far as prices serving an outside venue/event the menu (Tempo Grill) are pretty reasonable, glass of wine for $7, a bag of chips or cookies for $2, Veggie Burgers $11 & Personal Pizza $10. There is eco-friendly self serving station providing plenty of condiments, napkins & utensils. Again, my review is based solely upon the good customer service & accommodations I received during Strathmore's Summer Concert Series & not for catering services. Now Ridgewells, let's get some Vegan Patties on the grill! :-)
